I'm shocked that Calvin Coolidge is still recognizable on that one! Some steamroller or planer turned it into abstract art!
Yeah, I'm also on the "pass" bandwagon. I'm also not incredibly fond of the manufactured scarcity of a lot of these modern issues, especially for...
My last few issues of The Numismatist came unwrapped, unlike the first few issues I received. I worried about it for a bit, then realized that,...
